Re: Odd part on S1 VII board, and autofill problem

Yes, at 20A GFCI, did not trip. I measured 400 - 600 kOhms, so not very much leakage. I cleaned up the heater I pulled out and dried it, it's now > 50 meg-ohm, so probably fine.

I took it off. It was only held on by flux and did not appear to have been soldered down previously. It must have been there since the firmware upgrade in 2008. I cleaned the area with IPA to get the flux off. It did not correct the issue. I'm in contact with Chris's Coffee, hoping not to need a new...

Odd part on S1 VII board, and autofill problem

I've been tracking down an autofill problem on an S1 VII I've owned since 2007. I noticed this resistor on the board that looks like it should not be there. Anyone seen anything like this? I have narrowed the issue down to when the fill probe ground is connected, the fill does not work. Solenoid, va...
